    Excellent experience

    We booked Story Photographers (Ashley) for our wedding on 9/8/18. Communication with Ashley before the wedding planning out details for the day was easy and prompt. On the day of the wedding, Ashley was on top of everything, making sure we were staying on schedule for all the different photos we needed to get in. Ashley also saved the day on multiple occasions with her magic bag that included anything to fix any little snafu that arose while the girls in the bridal party were getting ready (safety pins, hairspray, etc etc etc). Ashley captured the wedding day perfectly and in such great detail. The pictures turned out absolutely fabulous. Highly recommend Story Photographers for your wedding day!

    My wife and I are so glad that we selected Ashley and the Story Photographers team for our wedding! We knew that Story Photographers had photographed other LGBTQ weddings and it was important to us to have vendors who supported and were genuinely excited about our big day! From day one, Story Photographers was super professional and was very quick to respond to any communication. They were also helpful in suggesting other vendors that they had had great experiences with. The day of the wedding, Ashley and Charity were so both professional and efficient, and made sure we got all of the formal photos that we wanted in a timely fashion! We were even EARLY to the reception which never happens! Ashley and Charity's presence was both calming and fun, and they instantly connected with so many of our family members and friends. Our wedding day wouldn't have been the same without them!

    Ashley is amazing to work with! Not only did she graciously reschedule after our work schedules were upended, she hauled her equipment all over downtown Hillsborough without complaint to make sure we took photos in all of "our spots." I'm so looking forward to seeing the shots she takes at our November wedding. :)

    Ashley is amazing. When I graduated college, Ashley took graduations for my friend and I and we loved them. Then, Ashley was the first vendor we booked for our wedding because I knew I wanted to make sure we had her and no one else! She made my bridesmaids and I feel so comfortable during photos and even was able to get my husband, who hates photos, to smile a bit while she was taking pictures of the groom and groomsmen. We love our pictures and plan to recommend Ashley and Story Photographers to any of our friends in the future who are getting married!

    We used Ashley for our engagement photos and then our wedding and she has become our official photographer. She and her team are absolutely amazing and I love their vision and eye. So easy to work with and they capture the little moments so perfectly. She's now done our pregnancy announcements, my baby shower, our maternity photos and will be doing our newborn photos as well!

    Ashley was a dream to work with from Day 1! Always responsive, helpful, kind, and compassionate. Not only is she extremely talented, but her light-hearted demeanor puts you at ease and instantly makes you feel like you've known her for years. I loved working with her on my wedding day - she made us feel so confident! What a perfect experience!

    I cannot thank Ashley and her co-photographer Britt for the beautiful job they did on my wedding! Ashley met with us ahead of time to talk over everything to make sure she knew exactly what we wanted and what she needed from us to make that happen as smoothly as possible. On the day of, both photographers were as in love with our wedding venue as I was and found all the best spots for our first look. They made sure to capture all the most precious moments of our day and worked around any number of complications caused by unexpected health problems and last minute changes. I cannot give them enough praise - they are kind, gentle, thoughtful, fun and professional. We definitely plan to use them again, for new family shoot, for babies, for anything! They are truly wonderful to work with!!!!

    I have been at two weddings where Ashley was the photographer and knew she was exactly the person I wanted for my own. From beginning to end she made the whole process seamless - responsive to emails, wanting input on our families and photo list, and throughout the day I never once had to think or worry about her and the photographs. She made our family and bridal party photos go by super fast, she knew how to bustle my dress, she took charge when she needed to, and our finished pictures are incredible - she captured the night perfectly and just as we wanted.

    It was such a great experience working with Ashley and David from Story Photographers! My husband and I used Story Photographers for our engagement photos, bridal portrait, and wedding day. Ashley made us feel so comfortable doing the engagement photo shoot. My husband hates having his picture taken, but Ashley made it fun and easy for us! The weather was horrible for my bridal portrait and we had to postpone it a day. Ashley was so flexible and understanding when we were debating which day to do it and decided to go ahead with it on an overcast day. She listened to my ideas and helped me keep my dress clean despite mud and threatening rain. On our wedding day Ashley and David took beautiful pictures and were such a great team. It's like they could read each other's minds about what angles they wanted and where they wanted us to be. They also helped keep us on schedule throughout the day. They really blended in and were not intrusive like I've seen some photographers do at weddings. Ashley was always prompt about responding to any questions I had and turned around the pictures within a short period of time. All of the photographs have been high quality and authentic capturing the best moments! I highly recommend Story Photographers!

    Story Photographers were our amazing wedding (and engagement) photographers. We mainly worked with Ashley and she is so easy to work with. Ashley responds quickly to questions and provides a long day of documenting your story. Throughout the day of the wedding, Ashley would give us little helpful hints throughout the day, which was SO very helpful. Our wedding was outside and due to rain we were not able to get many photos of my groom and I afterwards; however, Ashley offered to schedule another time to go back and take photos. Our photos were spectacular and we honestly have a hard time even picking which photos are our favorite due to have so many good photos. Thanks Story Photographers!

    Absolutely beautiful photographs. There was good communication before the wedding, photographers were punctual, responsive to what I was looking for, and just overall did a great job. Can't recommend highly enough.

    Her & her husbands own this business and are very much dedicated to their work. They shot all 3 of my daughters weddings & was great. Easy to work with, takes tons of pictures and very much well worth the price.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about these photographers. I had seen their wedding photos in the past as being a guest to other weddings they shot and I loved them. I knew they would be my first choice when it came to my wedding. Story Photographers far exceeded my expectations. They not only worked with me to stay on my budget, but they really took the extra time and steps to make this an easy and comfortable experience. They work in pairs, which is wonderful, so we were able to get guys and girls "getting ready" photos as well as several different angles/views of everything throughout the night. They are so professional, so patient, so sweet, and kept up with us the whole night! Last, but not least, the end results of their photos were just stunning....

    Love love love Ashley and David! They were there by our sides all day capturing every moment. Very easy to work with and the shots have been gorgeous!! I only wish we hadn't moved away so we could keep using them in the future. Their prices are the best in the area and the quality of their shots could not be better. Highly recommend to Triangle brides!!

    I AM OBSESSED WITH THE PHOTOGRAPHERS IN THIS GROUP!!! I've worked with Ashley, April, and Rebecca. Each one of them was INCREDIBLE! Our engagement shoot was carefree and fun…Ashley made us both feel so at ease. The wedding day, April and Rebecca brought it! I have only seen a few preview shots from the wedding, but they made me feel beautiful and took very natural photos. They are not divas and they listen to what you want to be captured from your wedding day. The way that they package up your final product makes me fall even more in love with this group. They are just all around all stars!

    Ashley and David are absolutely amazing! They made the while process enjoyable while being efficient and unobtrusive. My husband even commented that the pictures were so much easier than any others he has had to take.

    They handled my enormous family with ease while keeping us on schedule without it all feeling rushed. I am positive that I am going to adore my pictures and I can't wait to see them.

    I would highly recommend Story Photographers to anyone who needs an amazing photographer to capture those priceless life moments. Amazing!

    Ashley and David of Story Photographers were fantastic at our wedding on May 31! They followed our requests for photos and timing required by the venue and did a fantastic job of capturing every moment. Their bubbling personalities were wonderful mixed with our bridal party. They were awesome and very reasonable!

    Ashley and David were absolutely fabulous to work with. Though we booked them over a year before our wedding, I really felt like they were a part of our entire process. We chose to have them shoot our engagement session, my bridal portraits, and our wedding day... which in my opinion, was the best decision we made in terms of planning. By the end, I felt extremely comfortable around the camera, and I think a lot of it had to do with Ashley's bubbly personality and words of encouragement through the three sessions we worked together.

    Unfortunately, we had to reschedule our engagement shoot due to bad weather, but Ashley was extremely flexible in terms of rescheduling. Once we finally were able to schedule it, Ashley was great at giving directions to ensure our photos turned out great.

    Both Ashley and David were extremely chill on our wedding day - with that being said, they also knew how to handle the crowd. They were both professional and fun to be around at the same time... how awesome is that?! And to top it all off, ALL our pictures turned out beautifully. We loved that we were able to get a "sneak peek" with their blog postings, and our edited photos arrived just a few weeks after our engagement shoot and wedding day, respectively. We are truly looking forward to working with Ashley and David again! I am so thankful that we allowed them to tell our story, and I know you will be too.

    Ashley and David are such amazing people, and if it's possible even better photographers! I absolutely LOVED working with them both. I have yet to see all of my photos but the sneek-peak I got was enough to make me want moreeee! They both were so comfortable to be around and made being photographed so "easy" and "natural" (because even if we don't admit it, it is not very natural to have someone point a camera at you all day long and capture the moments you want to cherish for a lifetime). I would recommende these two to anyone, you will NOT be disapointed. Love love love them!

    Ashley and David were a dream to work with. We are so thankful that they were able to help us celebrate our special day. I readily admit to stalking their blog since, oh, SP was born, and once engaged, I was so thrilled to FINALLY be able to use them. SP shot our engagement photos, my boudoir session and our wedding - and I know we'll book them again for whatever life events happen in the future. Friendly, professional and flexible! My only regret is the unexpected rain that poured down when I was supposed to be getting my pre-wedding shots! I had so many PLANS! :-) So thrilled they made the trek to SC to help us party!

    Ashley and her husband David photographed both our engagement session and our wedding day and they did a fantastic job. Ashley was very prompt in answering emails which is very important when planning out all of the details of your day. They made us feel comfortable being in front of the camera. Ashley gave us such good tips while we were all getting ready and David was able to get the guys to relax and have a great time. Ashley ended up helping me with little things during the actual wedding day and was such a big help! We are so excited that we found Story Photographers and will continue to use them for many years!

    Ashley and her husband David are simply awesome! They were the only photographers that we met with, because after meeting with them we knew we didn't even want to consider anyone else. It felt like we were instant friends! Our wedding pictures were gorgeous, and with two photographers it was easy to get pictures of everyone getting ready before the wedding. Two photographers also allowed for different views during the ceremony without the photographers being really conspicuous. My husband and I laughed when we saw guests pictures from the wedding where Ashley or David were right near us (like when we were cutting the cake), but at the time we didn't even know they were there! I know that sounds like a strange compliment, but it was so nice to have them capture all of the special moments of our wedding without us feeling like we were tripping over photographers all day!
    There was a good combination of unique and traditional photography in our photos. Best of all- six weeks later we received a disc of all of our pictures that is ours to keep! Story Photographers does not keep the copyrights to their images so you can print them yourself as much as you like! They do also have a website that allows you or your guests to log in and order prints and albums from them, but we have not yet ordered any prints, so I can't comment on them. I really cannot recommend Story Photographers enough, and I can't wait to have them capture our family as it grows!

    Ashley and her husband David do an amazing job! She did our engagement pics, my portraits, and the entire day on the wedding day (no time limit). Their prices are very reasonable when I compared to other companies. They are very creative and take wonderful pictures.
